Interested in becoming a Climate Scholar?
Current UD Students: The application for current UD first- and second-year students who want to be Climate Scholars is now live! Interested students apply via this link: Climate Scholars Application Form. Applications accepted on a rolling basis.
The UD Climate Change Hub welcomed the inaugural class of Climate Scholars in the Fall semester of 2021 and has grown ever since. The Scholars now have ~93 students across 37 majors in all 8 colleges on campus. These engaged students learn from faculty and partners across campus and the region and partner with communities to develop climate change innovations.

Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE) Internships and Fellowships
The Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE) connects college students, recent graduates, postdocs and faculty to STEM internship and fellowship programs at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and more than a dozen other federal agencies. These programs are key to the recruitment and preparation of the next generation of our nation’s scientific workforce.

U.S. National Science Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates (NSF REU)
The U.S. National Science Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates (NSF REU) program offers research opportunities to undergraduates in any of the research areas funded by NSF.
Click here to learn more about their various research opporutunities.
What does the program offer?
An REU Site typically involves a group of around 10 students who work on related research projects at a host institution based in the United States or sometimes at an international location. At each REU Site, students work closely with faculty and other senior researchers to:
- Conduct authentic research.
- Receive mentoring.
- Build their knowledge and research skills.
- Learn about educational and career pathways in STEM.
Through an REU Supplement (supplemental funding), faculty or other investigators who hold NSF research grants might also be able to support one or more students to conduct research related to the investigator’s NSF-funded research project.
Are you interested in other research opportunities outside the REU program? Explore NSF’s Information for Undergraduates page.
What kind of support is offered?
REU participants receive competitive stipends and in many cases assistance with housing, meals and travel.
Who is eligible to apply?
Undergraduates (college and university students) pursuing an associate or bachelor’s degree and who are U.S. citizens, permanent residents or U.S. nationals are eligible to apply. Individual REU opportunities may establish additional criteria that further restrict eligibility.
How to apply
Students must apply directly to REU Sites and REU Supplement opportunities. NSF is not involved in the selection of students or the operation of the REU activities. The institutions and investigators that receive the NSF grants are responsible for managing their REU activities.
Students must consult each REU Site or REU Supplement opportunity directly for information and application instructions:
- For REU Sites: Find websites and contact information for each REU Site in the Directory of REU Sites.
- For REU Supplements: Faculty and other investigators who have REU Supplement funding connected with their NSF research projects can provide information about how to apply for those opportunities.
Application requirements vary for different REU opportunities. Often, they require a resume, statement of interest, transcript and reference letters.
When to apply
The vast majority of REU Sites operate during the summer months and have application deadlines during the January–March timeframe. Some REU Sites operate at other times, including the regular academic year. REU Supplements support student research during the academic year and/or the summer.
